waar staat daar dat de meeste medici tegen zijn ?

uit de feiten dat de meeste mannen in de states en de arabische wereld besneden zijn én dat dat meestal medisch gebeurt (in de US toch) leid ik dus af dat de meeste medici daar wel voor gewonnen zijn.

The American Academy of Pediatrics (1999) said: "Existing scientific evidence demonstrates potential medical benefits of newborn male circumcision; however, these data are not sufficient to recommend routine neonatal circumcision.

In June 2004 the College of Physicians and Surgeons of British Columbia said: "Infant male circumcision was once considered a preventive health measure and was therefore adopted extensively in Western countries. Current understanding of the benefits, risks and potential harm of this procedure, however, no longer supports this practice for prophylactic health benefit. Routine infant male circumcision performed on a healthy infant is now considered a non-therapeutic and medically unnecessary intervention."
